| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanism of tumor microenvironment regulating secreted micro RNA from intractable oral cancer and development a new diagnosis/treatment strategy.
We compared the miRNA expression profile between the good-responder and poor-response for chemoradiotherapy by using plasma obtained from OSCC patient's. We found that the expression of miR-223、miR-659 and miR-1290 showed significant change among two groups. The expression status of these miRNA in plasma correlated with metastasis, recurrence and response to chemoradiotherapy of advanced OSCC. Moreover, the expression status of miRNA also correlated with patient's survival. These results suggest that circulating miRNA which is distinctive in intractable OSCC may be a promising target for new diagnostic modality and treatment strategy.
